Use it daily and love it. Here are some tips:For longevity, buy a new blade for 7.99 periodically. They sell them here on amazon. You'll notice a lot less noise and less stress on the motor and faster blending. The blade screw lid is also where these leak after awhile.. So replace it.Make sure you dont break the interlocking plastic tabs off the cup when turning it on. If it doesnt seat, pick the cup up and turn the little rubber spinning wheel on the blender and try ti reseat the cup again. If you use force it will break the tabs like I've done. Not to fear, you can also buy the replacement plastic blender cup on amazon for cheap. Might as well upgrade to the larger cup for a few more ounces while youre at it.Nutribullet pairs extremely well with blender bottles. Pour your smoothies directly into the blender bottles and screw the lid on. Shake it periodically, before you drink to shake the contents that have settled. Blender bottles are also great because you'll never get smoothie on your face when drinking like i often did drinking from the plastic cup or from a glass. Blender bottles should come standard with the nutri bullet... It changed my smoothie game!Don't get diabetes. People load these up with fruit and give themselves a huge glucose spike which is actaully really bad for you. You should aim to mostly use vegetables and a protien or carb and only add enough sugar for taste. Frozen mixed berries and strawberries work really well opposed to fruit found in the produce section that spoil in a few days. You'll have much less waste using frozen berries.To clean the blender, after pouring your smoothie into a blender bottle or glass, put a cup of of water back into the cup and run the blender for for 5 seconds. This will dislodge your smoothie from the blades and the sides of the blender cup. Pour this watery mix into your blender bottle and shake shake shake it baby.When you're done making a smoothie you'll want to drink it and forget about washing the blade and cup... Don't do that. Run the cup under your faucet for a few seconds to dislodge the smoothie so it doesnt harden. Same for the blade. Grab the under side of the blade and spin it while spraying it woth water from the faucet as to dislodge all the bits of smoothie from the different angles on the blade.Back to blender bottles, buy one size larger then the capacity of your nutri bullet as to fit all you're smoothie and also have a bit of room to shake shake shake it.In this lesson, you have learned how to replace commin maintenance parts, how to uograde your nutribullet capacity, how to change youre smoothie game level by using blender bottles, how to easily clean your nutri bullet and how to make a smoothie without spiking your blood glucose levels.

Wow! First of all the price was unbelievably low. I paid $68 for a brand new Nutribullet 600. I ordered it on Tuesday, June 2 and it arrived on Thursday, June 4. How is that even possible?I've had a Breville Compact Juicer for over a year but don't use it anymore because every time I juice I need a shower afterwards. Pieces of veggies fly out of the shoot and end up in my hair, on my clothes and all over my kitchen. On top of that it takes about 15 minutes to clean. The cup is filled with foam after juicing and it's extremely expensive to use because it takes so many veggies to make a full glass.I have some health issues to reverse and a bunch of weight to lose and after seeing an infomercial for the Nutribullet one night I decided to do some research and check out some youtube videos. Because I was able to find the Nutribullet 600 for such a low price and because many reviews and videos mentioned that there's very little difference between the 600 series and the 900 series I decided to buy the 600.The Nutribullet I received has the new blade so hopefully I won't have the rusting and leaking issues I read about in earlier reviews. In fact, one of the youtube videos shows the old blade and new blade next to each other so I know I received the upgraded version.My first smoothie, or Nutriblast wasn't great because I used too many greens and not enough fruit. Except for that making the smoothie and cleaning up was flawless. For tonight's smoothie I used the smaller cup and a different blend of ingredients and it was much better. I used too much liquid tonight so it wasn't as creamy as I would have liked. I see this is a matter of mastering the recipes, like preparing any other meal,I bought the extended warranty offered by Amazon for only $5. It's much more expensive on the Nutribullet website.I think I'm going to love this little workhorse. I have a fridge full of organic fruit and organic veggies and I hope by this time next week I can update this review with a glowing report of better health and more energy.** Update: Very happy to report this unit is working flawlessly! Tonight I made the most delicious smoothy ever using frozen organic blueberries, frozen organic strawberries, organic baby spinach, Barleans flax oil, organic vanilla yogurt, almond milk (couldn't find organic). So incredibly delicious and easy. I called Nutribullet Tech Support to get some guidance about the rust issues other people have been reporting. Spoke to an incredible support tech named Michael. He explained to me that all appliances of this kind contain lubricating oil to keep the gears running smoothly. If the unit is damaged because of misuse the oil can leak from the section housing it. If the unit is not damaged the section containing the lubricating oil should remain intact. He explained that sometimes people don't know they damaged the unit because it continues working. He suggested changing the blade every 6 months as a precaution. Hope this helps.
